Thread: Kawekas - Back Ridge Hut?

A few mates and I are planning a trip into this area in the early new year. I was wondering if anyone on here has been in there recently and can give us a heads up on what to expect? It goes without saying that we aren't after your secret spots/lookouts or gps co-odinates.

Essentially - basic information regarding?

- What's the track/walk in like from Makahu Saddle carpark (time frame etc)?
- Is there any water available at the hut (water tank - closest stream/river)?
- What facilities are in the hut (fry pans, fire palce, meat safe etc)?
- Cell phone reception (what networks)?

@7mmsaum, @kiwijames, @Blaser, @BRADS, @Luke.S - Figured you guys must know the area a little?

PM me if you prefer.
